One of my favorites from DKC2, but I feel like it gets overlooked a lot since everyone fawns over Stickerbrush Symphony.

So what are some other really good bits of /vr/ music that get overlooked, whether because the rest of the soundtrack is so good, or because the game wasn't very popular?

Every song in Ducktales besides the moon one.

Castlevania Bloodlines and Mega Turrican are two Genesis games that don't sound like ass

Three games with shitloads of renders easily available yet every single DKC related thread that has been created on /vr/ since the board began uses the same box art in the OP.

Just pointing that out.

The Castlevania soundtrack.

It's true. I wish less people used box art for popular games. Using a random stage or a picture of character or enemy would be nice and could add to the discussion. DKC2 seems to be the biggest offender though.

On topic, bomberman 64 has some awesome music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9-ZhO2-L3Q

I agree with the sentiment and your content. Vortex' composer is great, he also made Croc.

Asterix on the Playstation is fantastic.

Very well composed and fitting to the game. You just can't go wrong with Asterix' soundtrack, they're always good.

Man I gotta replay this game again

JohnTron called it bad, so I think I can call it underrated.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0FDWi-v1HY

This one got two down votes, incredibly underappreciated music.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYibLr9Z5tM
One commenter even went so far to call it the worst soundtrack on the SNES.

I really like Lockjaw's Saga from DKC2. That game has so many good tracks. I don't understand why people only ever mention Stickerbrush Symphony when that's pretty much just Aquatic Ambiance from DKC1 but worse.

Oh man, I forgot how awesome that one was. Shit, was there a single bad piece of music in that game?

I never heard anybody mention anything about The Heroes Return music from Earthbound. I find them incredibly cozy and they really sound like they can lift your spirits.

Nutz had some fantastic stuff on every platform. I think Jonathan Dunn composed them?
